"A Month and a half from start to finish" Efficient, attentive, prompt, professional and a master of their craft! I don't think i have enough words to express my satisfaction with Isht and his team! Someone maliciously got me into some legal issues that would effect me becoming a US citizen so i needed to have legal representation to get my immigration status taken care of, I hired Isht and his team after being highly recommended. He did not disappoint, i gave him all the information he needed based on my situation he put my file together and within a Month and a half from start to finish i was sworn in as US citizen! I was blown away of how smooth and fast the process was! I was hesitant that the process was going by so fast, due to the current immigration enforcement! Nevertheless I went in and because all the information that Isht and his team gathered and submitted on my behalf the only challenge is to answer the Civic questions which they asked me only 6 because I answer them all right! Before the interview was concluded, the officer asked if I wanted to be sworn in today, which i hoped into ofcoure! I highly recommend them for your immigration services!After making this post, I read the reviews that previous clients have made, they are 100% accurate! I had to add this observation!

I can’t thank Extraordinary Immigration enough for their exceptional help in securing my residency in the US.

Isht Vasta and Rocio Brown are phenomenal. I was so fortunate to be referred to their office through a colleague and I am forever in their debt. I personally experienced mal-practice by a former immigration attorney who had my adjustment of status in their hands and they let it fall through the cracks. Not only was Extraordinary Immigration able to pick up all the pieces left behind, they went above and beyond to assist me with providing a strong case to USCIS. They thought of every angle, and every questions before there was a chance to be asked. There wasn't a single hiccup in the process due to how thorough they were. I'm so relieved and happy that Isht was my attorney. I would recommend their office, professionalism, and genuine concern for humans to anyone else needing immigration services.

Had a great experience with them. After a not very factual initial attempt to approve my I-140, the team worked hard for creating the best strategy and document the facts even using red and blue letters in my case to call the attention of the officials regarding key information. I highly recommended to work with Isht, the legal team and Rocio assisting.

They were extremely professional and helped answer multiple questions we had.They were very honest and straight forward from the start giving us rounded advice on the potential hurdles of the process.Their guidance and submission was first class and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough.We would have had zero change of achieving this without their help and will be forever grateful for the opportunity they gave us.

Alyssia and Isht have been a great help in my journey to become a green card holder. Both have a profound knowledge to engage in all kind careers/field in the area of skilled categories (EBI,EB2 etc..) to the finish line by acquiring your immigration benefit. It is based on their vast ability that they dish out competence to deal with their clients from different cultures and backgrounds. they are fantastic and professional. Please try them and see and you will never regret doing business with them .Even if you are financially handicapped , they will work out something for you to actualize your immigration dream..

I applied for my green card on EB2 category with Extraordinary Immigration PLLC (EI). I had a very complicated case due to my nationality resulted in many of the other companies I approached refusing to accept my case. Regardless of how complicated my case was, EI accepted my case with a very open mind and with full commitment to make it a success. And here I am with my I-140 approved now. EI stayed on my side on every requirement and response to RFEs and so on.It is worthwhile to mention that throughout the process, I introduced friends to EI with same complicated nationality, and those cases were approved as well.I truly recommend EI for those who want their lives changed by receiving their green card based on their abilities under EB1 and EB2. I have seen in my case and my friends' cases that EI delivered results.God Bless!

Highly Recommend EOI Law firm in NIW cases. Isht and Alyssa took over my case from a previous lawyer/preparer and responded an RFE that challenged all 3 prongs in a short period notice.They had to pretty much start over and re-do the whole case, and they did such a great job that My I-140 was approved within days of responding the RFE.I was always informed and all the dead lines and time frames where as in the agreement. This is indeed an Extraordinary Honest team of individuals , thank you for all your support and for really caring about people.

I rarely give a review of a person or service over the internet. However, Alyssa Giordano and her immigration law firm are the best ones. I have known Alyssa for three and a half years, and she has been my attorney during this period for my EB2 NIW of Green Card applications. Alyssa and her law firm guided me through every step, from filling out applications to case approval and everything in between. She is an excellent attorney, extremely professional, very knowledgeable, and cares about her clients and attaining a positive outcome for her clients. To describe them in one sentence, they are Amazing, and I recommend Extraordinary immigration for any immigration services.

Strongly recommend EI, both Alyssa and Isht are knowledgeable and accesible. Having worked with other immigration firms, it is rare to have this level of access and handholding throughout the process. EI has the resources of a large firm with the benefits of a boutique. Highly recommend EI as their counsel and guidance was instrumental to securing my green card a lot faster than expected.

If you are reading this review, possibly you are trying to find a law firm to take care of your case. Yep: I know how it is and how certain circumstances of your life might disappoint you about your immigration status in US.After reaching out to 11 law firms, I had to hear from some attorneys that my case was not viable. Well….Alyssa was referred by a friend of mine: my EB-2 NIW case was filled on Feb 2nd and my I-140 was approved today (3/3/2023). Alyssa, Isht and Rocio are an amazing team.Still remember the day I received a list of Qs & As that I should address and a huge list of documents I should gather. Didn’t think twice: made all I could do…I worked hard…retrieved documents and data from 10, 15 years ago. Had to chase some key people to provide some reference letters and after sharing everything with Alyssa, they submitted the application 10/15 days later.There is a document called “Cover Letter” which is their assessment on your case, to be read by the USCIS agent. One day before the submission I read it in full and was chocked: that was pretty much a final paper that I’d never imagined would be produced. In summary, these guys are amazing in extracting the best of your life and use in your favor, in a strategic fashion.Alyssa, Isht and Rocio, thank you very much for all you guys did! Love to work with people like that. Way to go!One more note: They are very responsive - learned that some law firms are impossible to be contacted.

I've worked with Ms. Giordano and Mr. Vatsa on my I-140 case and I can't thank them enough because my case was approved! Initially I filed the petition myself but as I expected USCIS issued me an RFE. I am so glad to have found the abovementioned lawyers and I am super lucky because two highly qualified lawyers worked on my case which is so rare in law practice. That was an amazing experience because they came up with insightful strategies how to build my case. They gave a clear structure to my petition underlining all my strengths and achievements. Moreover, they both were so understandable and seemed to know first hand what it means to be an immigrant. I knew right away I was in good hands and I'll never forget how much time, efforts, knowledge, skills they invested into my petition. I wish them best of luck and so thankful for they chose to help people become part of this amazing society!

I have known Isht for over a year and a half now, and I am genuinely amazed at the passion, dedication, and professionalism Isht has exhibited. More than an attorney, Isht has been my mentor in many ways guiding us to the best decisions in our life. He is very detailed oriented, going over and beyond in whatever he does. Isht, is an excellent listener and well-versed in the law, economics, financial and political matters which played a critical role in constructing my immigration case - covering all aspects of the subject matter. When it comes to constructing the case for extraordinary ability, Isht took an extended effort to understand each piece of evidence. He went through a lot of research and study materials to ensure the construction of the case was represented and justified to the fullest. Secondly, Isht has a clear vision of how a case must be presented. He is like an artist planning out the final picture and laying out clear milestones for the client to achieve the final outcome. Isht always has a plan B and C, with the ultimate goal of presenting the pieces of evidence accurately in a detailed and structured manner that is immediately visible to an adjudicator.I would strongly recommend anyone interested in pursuing a green card to reach out to Isht and the Extraordinary Immigration firm – and have complete confidence that your case will be represented and justified as needed.Thank you, Isht, for your services and partnership - looking forward to seeing you and the form reach greater heights.CheersMathew
